If you aren't getting Atlantic or Discovery you will need to ring Sky and ask why.

If this Essentials on Q then it is not the same as the 'Essential TV' for Sky Stream.

On Q, it only includes free-to-air channels.

AI generated search results confuse the longstanding 'TV Essentials' (on Sky+ and Sky Q) with 'Essential TV' (on Glass & Stream) because the latter is much more recent and was prominently publicised online so it dominates the artificially generated text.  

Note below: the search term is not the same as the result.
